2016 Go Bag Essentials: Everything You Need, From Head to Toe

Everything The Modern Man Should Pack When Traveling

Today’s man is constantly on the move and that means he has very little time to dedicate to his grooming routine while on the road. With that in mind, we've put together the essential product guide showcasing only the key products and gear men need when it comes to packing their “Go bag” for a trip, featuring a new grooming line for men from Cetaphil®.

Herschel Supply Co. Outfitter Bag

Herschel Supply Co.

First thing's first: You need an actual bag. Spacious and lightweight, this nylon bag was created for the savvy traveler. A separate shoe compartment keeps the rest of your clothes and accessories fresh. Stay organized by tossing all your dirty clothes in the removable laundry bag. And if the bag starts getting heavy, you can wear it like a backpack.

Cetaphil Men Daily Face Cloths

Cetaphil Men

Because men have more active sebaceous glands than women, their skin gets greasier faster. When your face starts resembling an oil slick, reach for one of these handy wipes. They’re generously-sized, and spiked with a non-irritating solution that cleanses and hydrates at once, making it perfect for after a workout. Just swipe and go.

White Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Low Top Sneaker

Converse

A contemporary classic, these crisp white sneakers are already a staple in most guys’ wardrobes. You can dress them up or down, proving you don’t have to sacrifice comfort for style. Plus, their price couldn’t be any more forgiving.

Nike Men's Air Hybrid Fleece Joggers

Nike

The "athleisure" trend shows no sign of slowing down, so why not embrace it? The key to making sweatpants work as a fashion statement is to find a pair that’s slim and subtly tapered at the bottoms. These versatile gray ones from Nike also feature an innovative fabric to keep you cool — and looking cool — all day long.

J.Crew Irish Linen Shirt

J.Crew

Linen is an ideal material for traveling since it’s lightweight, breathable, and looks handsome when slightly rumpled. Wear it unbuttoned over a tee for a more casual look. But if you need to look a bit more dapper, gently iron it and wear it under a blazer or jacket.

Tweezerman G.E.A.R. Essential Grooming Kit

Tweezerman

There’s little this handy kit can’t do. The trimming scissors are terrific for shaping your beard and brows, and the super-fine tweezers keep unibrows in check, all while removing stubborn in-growns. You can also bid farewell to those gnarly man hands with the nail clippers and cuticle shaper.

Cetaphil Men Extreme Healing Lotion

Cetaphil Men

The one thing you don't want to deal with while not on your home turf is dry skin. In order to avoid any chapping or irritation, make sure to pack some Extreme Healing Lotion from Cetaphil Men. Using it won't clog your pores, it's non-greasy, fragrance-free and is dermatologist-tested to ensure that your skin is properly protected from any dryness, and features clinically proven 24-hour hydration to heal dry skin.

Black Hanes Tagless Pocket T-Shirt

Hanes

Here’s another basic every guy should own. Black makes every figure look trimmer, while the pocket prevents the tee from looking too casual. And let’s be real here: The color also masks stains and spills, which is helpful when you’re on the road (and not near a washing machine).

L.L. Bean Easy-Care Travel Blazer

L.L. Bean

Imagine a blazer you can wear right out of the suitcase, that also happens to be made from super-lightweight, breathable, and wrinkle-resistant cotton. As if things couldn’t get any better, you can also machine wash and dry this right in the comfort of your own home (or wherever you are).

American Crew Boost Powder

American Crew

Adored for its versatility and ease of use, this unique product easily blends with other styling products for a handsome matte finish, amplifies limp locks, and absorbs oil as well. Its invisible finish ensures a perfect match to any hair color.

Go-Comb

Go-Comb

Discreet, thin, and the size of a credit card, this fine-toothed metal comb was created expressly for the traveling man. Use it to groom the hair on your head, your beard, and even your moustache. It fits neatly into your wallet or back pocket to make on-the-go touch ups a breeze.

Old Spice Timber Fresher Collection Deodorant

Old Spice

Unlike traditional antiperspirants — which can irritate sensitive skin and cause other unpleasant side effects — this deodorant won’t stain clothes or leave a sticky residue on the skin. It’s also aluminum-free, and the fresh woodsy scent won’t compete with your favorite cologne.

Levi’s Denim Jacket

Levi's

Denim jackets, especially from this iconic brand, are one of those timeless wonders that seem to fit in all year long, no matter where you are. They look super sharp and modern when paired with a more formal outfit, and are a natural finishing touch to a more casual look.

Cetaphil Men Daily Face Lotion with Broad Spectrum SPF 15

Cetaphil Men

As you already know, daily sunscreen is an absolute must (even in the winter and on overcast days). This newly-launched two-in-one product combines lightweight, quick-absorbing moisture with broad-spectrum protection against the sun’s damaging rays.

Black Todd Snyder + Champion Classic Pocket Sweatshirt in Black

Todd Snyder

The slightly fitted silhouette, color, and pocket accent keep this sweatshirt looking sleek and stylish, instead of sloppy. You can pair this with practically any bottom — shorts, khakis, or jeans — and still look cool, while feeling relaxed.

BIC Flex 5 Razor

BIC

As the only disposable razor with five blades and a unique balancing sphere, this delivers an ultra-close, superior shave while preventing razor burn, nicks, and cuts. It’s also awesome for shaving other body parts, in case you’re ready to flash some more skin this summer.

Ray-Ban Polarized Classic Aviator Sunglasses

Ray-Ban

If you’re going to wear a pair of shades, stick with a classic iconic style like Ray-Bans. Not only do they flatter a wide range of face shapes, the polarized lenses also offer 100% UV protection against the sun. Here’s to looking sharp and smart at the same time.

Centrum Men Multivitamin

Centrum

Even the most disciplined health nut can have difficulty maintaining a balanced diet while traveling. So enlist the help of a daily multivitamin, like this one, which supports all the stuff guys care about: Muscle function, energy, immunity, and metabolism.

Old Navy Ultimate Skinny Lightweight Built-In-Flex Khakis

Old Navy

Like a lot of the other clothing and accessories we’ve included in this bag, khakis are great for their versatility. They’re sporty and chic when wrinkled and rolled up, and look equally handsome when ironed. There are few outfits that don’t look more polished with the help of these.

ChapFix Lip Balm

ChapFix

The petroleum-free formula, enriched with non-greasy emollients like aloe and vitamin E, makes quick work of moisturizing and minimizes the need for frequent reapplication. The soft mint flavor cools both lips and breath, as a broad-spectrum sunscreen protects against damage.
